Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Colliston
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we’ll tell you. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks from the base of a shower screen and failed joints on frameless glass.
Outdoor sealant needs a dry surface, so window work around Colliston is planned around the weather. Tell us about access to all the windows and doors, upstairs included.

Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- A broken pane or roof panel
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

What glazing silicone looks like in Colliston
Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, and the joint between the box frame and the stone or render is traditionally pointed with sand mastic. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
In and around Colliston, as anywhere, good glazing silicone starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you let a flat or house near Arbroath station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Act on drips or damp patches early
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Why act early in Colliston
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. Around Colliston, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
